### 17.8 Creating jumps and pop-ups for WinHelp

To invoke a jump or a pop-up in WinHelp, you click a hotspot: usually green underlined text. Clicking a hotspot causes one of the following:

- a jump, if the underline is solid: another topic replaces the topic in the current window
- a pop-up, if the underline is dotted: a smaller window pops up over the current window.
